Question 9

In the field of biology (a subfield of Natural Science), it is a well - known fact that humans have approximately 10,000 taste buds. The other options (100, 1,000, 1,000,000) are not in line with the scientific knowledge about the number of human taste buds.

From the perspective of food selection (related to fields like nutrition, which is part of Natural Science, or even psychology/sociology in Social Science, but more directly related to how people choose food), taste is the primary factor that drives people to select specific foods. While cost, nutrition, culture, and lifestyle can also influence food selection, taste is the most common number - one reason.

Answer:

10,000
